| Abstract | Background Platinum-based chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, few studies have evaluated the efficacy of subsequent chemotherapy for relapsed NSCLC following platinum-based chemoradiotherapy. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of platinum-doublet chemotherapy as a second-line treatment for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC. Methods We retrospectively evaluated patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy following platinum-based chemoradiotherapy who were registered in a nationwide registry NSCLC database. Patients were divided into the platinum-doublet chemotherapy (platinum) group and single-agent chemotherapy (non-platinum) group based on the type of second-line chemotherapy. Results The platinum group (n = 119) showed significantly better overall survival (OS) than the non-platinum group (n = 201) (median OS: 21.5 vs. 10.5 months, hazard ratio [HR]: 0.54, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.40–0.73, p < 0.001). OS from the beginning of chemoradiotherapy was also significantly better in the platinum group than in the non-platinum group (median OS: 34.9 vs. 21.8 months, HR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.43–0.79, p = 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, platinum-doublet chemotherapy as second-line therapy, female sex, clinical stage IIIA, and duration of ≥ 8.6 months from the beginning of first-line therapy to the beginning of second-line therapy were associated with significantly better OS. Conclusion Platinum-doublet chemotherapy as a second-line therapy may prolong survival in unresectable stage III NSCLC patients following platinum-based chemoradiotherapy. Thus, re-administration of platinum agents may be a promising treatment for unresectable stage III NSCLC treated with platinum-based chemoradiotherapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
